    Use a hydraulic pressure gauge on the power unit to indicate the system pressure in psi. The torque produced by the PETOL™ Drill Pipe Tongs is dependent on the hydraulic pressure. The torque produced in foot-pounds is the same as the pressure applied in psi (i.e. 2400 psi produces 2400 foot-pounds).

    Tong Adjustment Warning! The pipe must NOT contact the flat side of the chain screw as shown above. Improper contact will cause premature breakage of the chain screw and could cause injury or death. If the flat side of the chain screw contacts the pipe, the chain MUST be lengthened by adding 2 pitches of chain.
